So Axe. I'm sure you're saying you're sure about being sure about this, but I'm not sure about you being sure about being sure about this, or whether you're really sure at all, so are you sure for sure? --{{User:A Helpful Little Gnome/Sig}} 04:56, 8 January 2013 (UTC) | So Axe.

Revision as of 22:02, 8 January 2013
This page is for system operators to request a demotion of status, or for enaction of demotion due to long-term inactivity. The act of demotion is restricted to those with bureaucrat status, and as such system operators will need to request their demotion here.
Guidelines for Demotion Requests
Request
System operators who wish to request demotion must consider these things before applying.
- Reason for demotion - As demotions cannot be reversed unless the user goes through promotions page again, the user is asked to make sure that they are making the correct decision when applying for demotion.
After a system operator has submitted his or her demotion request, the active Bureaucrats will review it, and after reaching a unanimous decision, choose to either demote the system operator or deny his or her request. After action has been taken, the request will be moved to the archive.
Inactivity
main article: Policy Text
- A sysop that hasn't made any edit in four months will be warned, on their talk page, by a Bureaucrat, that they face demotion of their sysop powers in one week, if they remain inactive.
- One week after the warning has been placed, dependant on the actions of the sysop, the Bureaucrat will decide whether or not to carry out the demotion.
- This is to avoid, for example, the unlikely case of a sysop simply making a single edit with the aim of avoiding the demotion.
- The Bureaucrat is trusted and bound to make a fair decision, and not to demote a sysop who clearly demonstrates a return to activity on the wiki.
- Any demonstrable abuse of this power by a Bureaucrat, however unlikely, could (as with any other abuse of specific powers) be grounds for a Misconduct case.
- If the sysop makes no response at all to the warnings, they must be demoted.
Requests for demotion still needing to be processed
Axe Hack
My Re-Evaluations is in about a month, on January 10th, 2013. I, however, do not wish to run another term as SysOp under this account. And as per this old policy, "If you leave, come back under a new name and are nominated for moderator, it is expected that you will give up moderator powers on your old account." And that's exactly what I am doing. I am leaving and returning under a new alias as soon as my Re-Evaluation date arrives. I understand that under a new alias, I will be required to go through all the daily regular user chores and tasks required to be eligible for a SysOp position all over again. And yes. I am positive. My resignation from the team on January 10th, 2013 is final. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 01:24, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
- So, you want this to be processed on your A/RE date, and not before, correct? —Aichon— 02:48, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
- Aye. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 03:03, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
- Since we're about a week away, let's go ahead and ask the standard "are you sure?" —Aichon— 21:35, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- Are you REALLLLLLY sure?--SA 21:47, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
- The question should be whether or not I have any other protected pages that I want to edit with category alphabetization. To demote now or after re-evaluations. That is the question. Either way, my re-evaluations would become quite moot. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 00:58, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
- yer still gonna be a ding dong no matter what alias you choose.--User:Sexualharrison02:26, 8 January 2013
- We'll see about that. I already have another personality from another site getting ready for it's big debut in UD. Whoever said one can't change their personalities obviously lied. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 04:32, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
- Is that why, weeks after announcing you were leaving, you're still harping on about this new account? 04:35, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
- I still have SysOps here, and it'd be such a waste to not let it run its course, duh. That account goes live on the wiki some time shortly after this account gets demoted. Now, I'll leave this to the 'Crats. They can demote me the day when my Re-Evaluation is suppose to go up, or they can demote me when my Re-Evaluation period is over. Either way, holding a Re-Evaluation for me at this point is pretty much moot. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 04:50, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

So Axe. I'm sure you're saying you're sure about being sure about this, but I'm not sure about you being sure about being sure about this, or whether you're really sure at all, so are you sure for sure? -- AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 04:56, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
I really don't see how you think a new alias is going to work for you. I'm just saying.--SA 13:07, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
